A Model 16X story
#23

https://www.ebay.com/itm/11-1-2-DIA-VINT...Swz-5Ze9tM

This might not be the one you need, but there are others. Also, there are modern cones (one of those was used in re-coning of my 16's 8" speaker) that are as good or better. As long as you do not use "compression" speaker parts: if you go to a pro who restores old speakers, they know what to use and what no to use.

You could ask around here: some folks have cones.
You could possibly find a pro speaker shop and ask them for a cone (if you want to do the repair yourself).

This said, one thing at a time is the way to go, and if your speaker actually works, I would first restore the rest and then address this.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
